[QUOTE="TANSTAAFL, post: 3852520, member: 27098"] Incredible to think there are 3 generations of Coyotes now. I like the second gen, it has cast iron cylinder liners and an aluminum block. Not totally sold on the 3rd Gen yet, no liners, plasma deposition of iron on the aluminum block. Ford did get 3 extra cubic inches out of the "5.0" Coyote with that change, currently up to 307 cubic inches. Is it a good engine overall? Only time will tell. The 5.4 was good in concept, however has had two major issues: 1) Spark plug ejection 2) Cam Phaser issues The best one can do is take care of their car, change oil often, get issues fixed, don't beat the snot out of it and hope for the best.
